This page serves as documentation for the updated mass of each mechanical sub-team’s assemblies.
The Dynamics team uses a vehicle weight of 720 kg when performing designs and simulations.
We want to have an updated vehicle mass in order to know how close we are to the mass constraint of 720 kg. We should be able to have a more accurate evaluation now because we are in the later stages of the vehicle.
Sub-Team | Assembly | Mass (kg) | DRI or Person who calculated the number | Link to Documentation/Calculations (if you want) | Last Updated |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Example - Aerobody | All panels | 120 kg ??? | Tommy | ||
Interiors | Catamaran Cover | 25kg ?????? estimated very early on in design process (+60kg including battery pack and other electronics) | Renzo | May 11, 2021 | |
Seats | 20kg ish ???? (for ballast, seats, and all brackets) | Sheila | May 11, 2021 | ||
Dashboard | TBD | ||||
Doors | TBD | ||||
Trim | TBD | ||||

Chassis | Chassis | 61 kg (2021-01-17 file, does not include structural reinforcements) | Kimberly | May 11, 2021 | |
Aerobody | Aerobody Panels | 40.2 kg ??? Missing 3 panels and bridges. Since ~3/4 of the panels have been accounted for. Should multiply the above weight by 1.25-1.5. | Tommy | https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15YotT9fcNqfaiLNJMqSb2h2pj5yUroy5b_W9Gr47gMg/edit#gid=0 | June 4th, 2021 |
